We're 10 days into omicron we have nowhere near enough data. But you're the one talking about long-term immunity and long-term immunity is proportional to the severity of infection. You are free to take any risks you wish to take.
If my employer wishes to pay the total cost for risking my health to work in a closed space for the sake of looking busy, and in the event of a hospitalization they will agree in writing to pay 100% of the uninsured costs, plus take out a $10 million life insurance policy in the event of my demise, I still wouldn't take the deal because I don't hate myself. But I do hate the tech sorts that think bringing everyone back into the office wearing masks all day is a good idea right now. Even Google's leadership knows that's a bad idea. Just more arguments in favor of not going to startups led by sociopathic TLAs for crumbs of the equity pie when you can make six to seven figures working for the big guys.
Further, I doubt any employer would take that deal above. They know that once you factor in the total cost it's a terrible risk. Just like unless you're a TLA at a startup you're taking a really bad deal with less than 2% equity. But you wouldn't believe that listening to any TLA sitting pretty with 5 to 25% of the pie telling you why they're going to be just like FAANG one day.
I'm a strong believer in attaching dollar figures to decisions and I know these CEOs are not continuing to allow working from home out of the goodness of their hearts. You may choose to believe otherwise of course
